    Description

    The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Navy, has issued a solicitation for small boat maintenance services, with a focus on dive boat and trailer repairs. The objective is to ensure the proper operability of the Undersea Rescue Command dive department's boats.

    Scope of Work

    The successful contractor will be responsible for providing comprehensive maintenance and repair services for the specified boat model, including:

    • Engine maintenance and repairs, such as inspecting and replacing anodes, spark plugs, and fuel filters, and changing oil and gearcase oil.
    • Cleaning and inspection of various boat components, such as the propeller, outboard engine steering system, cowling, and trim components.
    • General maintenance tasks, including preserving the pilothouse and deck components, inspecting bulkheads, decks, and superstructures, and testing trailer tie-downs.
    • The contractor must provide all necessary personnel and transportation of equipment and parts for the repairs. All maintenance work must be carried out at the designated Navy location, NAS North Island in San Diego.
    Maintenance Requirements

    The maintenance work is governed by specific Maintenance Requirement Cards (MRCs), which outline periodic maintenance tasks. These MRCs cover a range of tasks, from engine internal anode inspections to cleaning and preserving boat components. The contractor must adhere to these MRCs to ensure the boat's reliability and safety.

    Eligibility and Evaluation Criteria

    The solicitation is reserved for small businesses, and the agency intends to award a Firm Fixed Price Delivery Order to the most advantageous bidder. The evaluation of offers will consider three main factors:

    1. Technical: Offerors must demonstrate their ability to meet all maintenance requirements and conform to the specified period of performance.
    2. Past Performance: Assessment based on relevant records, focusing on timeliness, quality, cost control, and customer satisfaction.
    3. Price: A comparison of quotes, including transportation and travel charges.

    Only offers rated "Acceptable" or higher for Technical and "Satisfactory Confidence" or higher for Past Performance will be considered for award. The agency will then conduct a best value determination, with past performance considered more important than price.

    Contract and Funding Details

    The contract is anticipated to span five years, divided into four option years, with an estimated value of several million dollars. The period of performance for the successful contractor must not exceed 30 days to complete the required repairs and maintenance.

    The Naval Sea Systems Command has issued several maintenance requirement cards (MRCs) for outboard engines used in small boat mechanical handling systems. These MRCs outline specific maintenance tasks to be performed at different periodic intervals. MRC 43 H4LV N focuses on cleaning and inspecting the propeller, requiring 0.4 hours of work. It involves removing the boat from the water, tagging out the engine, and conducting a detailed inspection and cleaning of the propeller and associated components. MRC 43 H6YH N requires a yearly or every 800 hours of operation inspection and potential replacement of engine internal anodes, with a man-hour estimate of 0.5. MRC 43 H4LX N covers the inspection, lubrication, and maintenance of cowling, steering, and trim components. It has a higher man-hour requirement of 1.6, and the task should be performed every 400 hours of operation. MRC 44 H4LY Y pertains to the inspection and replacement of external anodes, which needs to be done every 1200 hours of engine operation. The estimated man-hours are 1.2, and the process involves removing the boat from the water, inspecting the anodes, and replacing them if necessary. MRC B3 H4LZ N describes the cleaning, inspection, and lubrication of the outboard engine steering system, scheduled every 400 hours of operation. It emphasizes safety precautions and the use of personal protective equipment, with a man-hour estimate of 1. MRC 43 G9RY Y involves inspecting and replacing engine spark plugs, requiring 1 man-hour and scheduled every 400 hours of operation. MRC 53 H4MA Y outlines the procedure to change gearcase oil, which is needed every 100 hours of operation. It estimates 2 man-hours for the task, including removing the boat from the water, draining and refilling the gearcase, and ensuring the correct oil level. Finally, MRC 43 H4MB N requires the inspection of engine throttle and shift control cables every 1200 hours of operation, with a half an hour of estimated man-hours. These MRCs are critical for the effective maintenance of outboard engines, ensuring safety, efficiency, and timely interventions to avoid costly repairs or breakdowns.
